Chapter 415: Mermaid Island?

In the cabin, Lindsey and Wah Wah Wah stared at each other, wide-eyed.
The activation condition for the [Stealth] skill is that the target must not be within the enemy's attention range. The mermaids were fooled, but Wah Wah Wah was clearly not one of them.
The girl carefully observed Lindsey, and after a while, she also noticed the gradually decreasing presence of the person in front of her.
However, neither of them spoke.
Only after the Red Sea Mermaids completed their search of the entire ship and the water in the cabin receded, did Wah Wah Wah ask Lindsey:
"Lindsey, can your posture make the mermaids ignore you?"
Lindsey answered candidly:
"This is a capability of my skill."
Wah Wah Wah was naturally curious:

Lin Sai and Wah Wah Wah worked together, utilizing their Stealth skills to effortlessly slip away.
As they stepped onto the island, the first thing that caught their eyes was not the large island itself, but the storm raging outside! The storm that had attacked their fish boat the previous night had dissipated, and it now hovered over the nearby sea, with lightning occasionally flashing within the cloud cover.
Only near the island was there a cleared safety zone, like the eye of a hurricane.
"This storm..." Lin Sai's gaze intensified.
【Sea Tempest—A storm power with the ability to discern friend from foe.】
"Discerning friend from foe, could this storm have been summoned by the mermaids?"
Lin Sai frowned as he examined the information he had scouted.
Wah Wah Wah immediately refuted, "Impossible! Red Sea mermaids do possess some special abilities, but they primarily lie in their enchanting songs and sea manipulation. I've never heard of any mermaid capable of controlling storms, which involves manipulating the weather!"
After explaining the Red Sea mermaids' abilities, Wah Wah Wah also gazed towards the distant storm.
If it were about appreciating art or music, the young lady would have no problem.
But the majestic sea tempest before her...
Aside from feeling the grandeur of the scene, Wah Wah Wah couldn't discern anything further.
"Lin Sai, are you sure this storm isn't naturally occurring?"
Lin Sai replied without hesitation, "I'm certain; this is the result of my skill identification."
With such a confident response, Wah Wah Wah also realized the subtleties of the situation, her tone filled with complexity.
"Whether it's summoning a storm through music or painting such a scene, it would require at least a Master Artist of the Seventh Stage or higher."
"Who would do something like this just to observe mermaids' reproduction?"
Lin Sai calmly opened the map, expanding his scouting range. This time, his target was not the Red Sea mermaids but the island ahead.
As expected, the fish boat they were on was not the only target of the Red Sea mermaids' attack.
In the shallow waters near the grid-like reefs, there were various red, green, and yellow markers intertwined, indicating that many male humans had already fallen victim.
However, Lin Sai also noticed numerous markers of different colors on the deeper island land.
Pointing to the mountains in the center of the island, he asked, "Wah Wah Wah, the Red Sea mermaids shouldn't be able to operate so deep inland, right?"
Wah Wah Wah replied with certainty, "Absolutely not!"
"Unless they move along rivers, once they go ashore beyond a hundred meters, they're no different from beached fish."
Lin Sai nodded slightly.
He casually took out a bottle of Hawk Eye Potion, drank it, and then peered through his telescope.
"Forest, rivers... Indeed, there are human-built wooden structures and smoke from campfires."
"Wah Wah Wah, there's significant human activity in the center of the island!"
Hearing this peculiar situation, the girl's eyes showed no fear.
She realized that she had stumbled upon something more complex than a Red Sea mermaid's mating ritual!
"Interesting, very interesting!"
"Lin Sai, there must be renegade artist activities on this island. They're engaging in certain special activities, and I..."
Lin Sai interrupted Wah Wah Wah's excitement, "Listen, I think there are two things we need to do."
"First, we should go to the sea and check the specific situation of the storm, which will determine whether we can leave smoothly. Second, we need to investigate the truth about this island and confirm if there are any other dangers."
"Let's cooperate and work towards our goals as best as we can, right?"
